Thread Name: Lyr Req: Dublin Bay (Crawford, Barker)
Subject: RE: Sweet Dublin Bay
The copyright is now owned by Warner Brothers, INC, the original 1916© renewed by WB. Warner has a "Great Songs of the Century" series of songbooks, and this one is in the "51 Lucky Irish Classics"... it is titled THEY SAIL'D AWAY (Dublin Bay) with lyrics by Annie (Barry) Crawford (1731-1801, and music by George Barker (d.1877). Since Warner owns it, I am not surprised if it is used on soundtracks. There are three verses. I haven't checked to see if it is in the database. alice in montana
